Answer:

  • second choice:<em><u> 1.0 g of the solution contains 15 × 10⁻⁶ g of benzene.</u></em>

Explanation:

ppm is a unit of concentration that means parts per million. In grams that is grams of solute per one million (10⁶) grams of solution.

Then, <em>15 ppm of benzene</em> means that there are 15 grams of benzen in 1,000,000 grams of solution.

That leads to:

  • 1,000,000 g solution / 15 g benzene

Multiplying numerator and denominator by 10⁻⁶ you find:

  • 1,000,000 × 10⁻⁶ g solution / (15 × 10⁻⁶ g benzene)

Simplifying:

  • 1.0 g solution / (15 × 10⁻⁶ g benzene)

Which is read as 1.0 g of the solution contains 15 × 10⁻⁶ g of benzene, i.e. the second answer choice.

Do x-rays travel slower than infrared
OleMash [197]
No, x-rays do not travel slower than infrared radiation or even the opposite. Both are travelling in vacuum therefore they travel at same speed. They differ in the frequency of the electromagnetic waves.

If an atom with a mass number of 27 has 14 neutrons,it is an isotope of which element​
kkurt [141]

Answer:

the number of neutrons in above isotope = A - Z = 27 - 13 = 14. Note: The molar mass of aluminium, which is average of atomic masses of all isotopes = 26.981538 g/mol, since 13Al27 is the major isotope.
